And yes, but the difference is, white people of today are the ones affected the most by racism today. ITs completely legal to be racist....as long as its against whites.

Hide the money, there's poor people around!
 
When protesting turns to rioting I suggest looting the government buildings, starting with the local cop-shops.
 
Their goal is not realistic either - politicians putting forth a bill. When? What needs to be in it? What if it fails to pass? Politics and legislature are messy, time consuming business that generally require compromise and working together in order to accomplish anything meaningful. Can't be forced via blackmail.

I don't like their tactics. Do what we say or we will fuck your shit up. Not very democratic. Collective might of nerds online makes right.

Yeah Anonymous definitely isn't getting any politicians moving by airing a police departments laundry. It's a petty move. But the notion that everyone upset with this incident should be protesting for political/legislation action is better than just gathering in angry mobs and staring down cops. I hope the masses follow anonymous in that fashion.

As far as what specifically should be called for, I'd start with more stringent protocol for shooting a suspect. Like citizens; unless an officer feels someone's life is in imminent danger don't shoot? We'd probably have to meet police somewhere in the middle. Also not allowing departments to internally investigate their own officers sounds like a good idea. It's causing problems much like universities overseeing sex crime investigations on their own campus. Too much concern for protecting the departments reputation.
 
Not really surprising.

Civil Rights marches often turned into riots as well. Too many emotional people in one place.
 
Theres no need for AA anymore. You shouldnt even be allowed to ask about a persons race in applications.

How many black people got there job due to their race? You think McDonalds having a black CEO is just a coincidence?? They are one of the most racist companies in this country.

You do know that white women are actually the primary beneficiaries of Affirmative Action policies, right? I personally think it should be done on income level and not minority status anyway, that way poor white men(since again, white women are the predominant beneficiaries) and Asians can apply and it'd also help poorer blacks who actually need it and not middle class ones who really don't need the boost. But what do I know?

Also, as far as your comments that basically amount to innate savagery and stupidity among black people, it'd probably help you to know that African immigrants actually get the highest educational achievement, of any immigrant group in the US?

Also, several of the fastest growing economies are in African countries, despite continued political corruption, disenfranchisement, and violence, hence the US trying so hard to snake up to these rising African countries, and divest China of its influence in Africa.

So actually, contrary to your opinion, failure/violence/underachievement isn't innate to black people, which gives the looters even LESS of an excuse.


EDIT: As far as you AviatorShades, I suggest you actually get a clue on the history of Sub-Saharan Africa before you ever even speak on it. There were several civilizations in the region, and contrary to the Darkest Africa fluff sherdoggers gorge on, the Sahara was not always a desert, and there is a long history of interaction between people in the Sahara and West Africa, before the arrival of Islam and after it.

Also, it may shock both you and jlazer to know that long before the civil rights movement there were wealthy black people, who weren't AA-beneficiaries as you'd like to be true, but actually made their own wealth through industry despite very very real racial barriers(I'd rank getting your entire business district burned down to be a little more serious than someone calling you a foul name as people shriek about so much nowadays).

what happened 100s of years ago had profound effects on the ppl of today. You cant just flip a switch and change ppl cuz "things arent that way anymore" when you destroy somebodies culture, their identity and the family unit you would probably have to expect long term effects for generations to come.

Its silly to think otherwise. As silly as thinking that racism simply disappeared in the last 50 years. Silly is about as nice a word as i can use, ignorant would be more accurate.

This guy makes absolute sense.

So some people that you never knew suffered a hardship, and that gives you the right to steal tennis shoes when another stranger that you have never met, goes through a hardship!!!

OHH POOR ME, SOMEBODY DESTROYED A CULTURE THAT I NEVER EVEN FUCKING KNEW SO I NEED THAT 50 INCH TO HELP BRING IT BACK!!!
 
So you want armed looters coming to your home rather than the ordinary kind?

I don't know what the hell you're talking about at this point. :icon_lol:

I said "When protesting turns to rioting I suggest looting the government buildings, starting with the local cop-shops.". The part about attacking police stations is humor designed to augment the underlying subtext, which is that when you're pissed at the government it makes more sense to go after their shit than private property. That's if you want to somehow make a legitimate connection between the protest and the looting.
 
^I actually agree with Cubo here.

If you were so hot and ready to go, "Fuck the police" and all, why not surround the police precinct?

Oh wait...the police have guns. -__-

In any case, the stores didn't fucking shoot the kid, the police did. Yet here I am seeing people selling "their" goods on craigslist, yet chastising people for focusing on the looting. Well if you actually gave two shits about the kid you wouldn't have ruined the focus on what happened to him by enriching yourself at others(including his) expense.

Oh yes I've read plenty about the history of sub-Saharan Africa. The desperate attempts aging acid-casualty authors make at falsely attributing Middle Eastern/North African civilizations to minor trading posts in central and southern Africa is a source of endless comedy, as is the portrayal of African slavery as "harmonious and peaceful" compared to US slavery, which was among the smallest-scale slavery operations in the world at the time.

What relevance does the Sahara not always being a desert have to anything I typed?

On the other topic, I am very thankful for the Asian demographics in California. We recently saw an attempt to bring back affirmative action-style college admissions to cater to drug addicts, "ballaz" and other people who should not reproduce for the sake of future generations.

While the white hippies laid around and dyed their hair blue and listened to Bob Marley, several powerful Asian-Californian political groups stood up for themselves and shot it down with ease. Bravo.

Not only did Asian businessmen effortlessly strut through the "invisible barriers holding down the black man" that blue-haired white layabouts fabricated: Now they're gradually turning California into a modern merit-based society.

Then clearly you need to take basic reading comprehension classes as you've learned nothing. And I have not met ONE scholar worth their salt who treated African slavery(hell, slavery ANYWHERE, seeing as how it was widespread throughout the ancient world, yet was clearly different from chattel slavery which doesn't mean it was "good") as "perfect or harmonious". I'm not even going to bother entertaining you as someone about a serious discussion.
